Hello guys, I have 2 problem:

1) I can't drag and drop any file or folder between Desktop and folders. Also I can't drag multiple items in Desktop:

2)After some commands (such as nslookup) the texts I typed are invisible like while typing password. After I hit Enter button, all things I tried to write appears.

Please do not include huge images like the two I have removed and replaced with links.
Images of nearly 3Mb each will be a major problem for some forum users with small screens, poor connections or limited and expensive bandwidth available.
Use the attachment facility (the paperclip icon in the toolbar of the Reply to Thread window to point to images on your own hard disk rather than using a third party image host as you did, then upload the images which will appear as thumbnails in your post.

For your first problem I know that you need to add an extra to the gnome desktop, which I do not use, so have a look at https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2455204&highlight=desktop+icons for more details.
I can not help with the second problem.

Thank you for your answer. If 6 MB was precious for someone, they wouldn't spend it by visiting my question :) Also I wanted to explain my question with video. Not with pictures. And it is not possible to attach any video format or gif. So that I did it with gif within third party image website, which is best and only solution.
Moreover, This forum need a vBulletin extension to show pictures in a proper size when they are huge. Most forums let users to decided to show pictures %75-50-25 smaller than original size. And sometimes it happens automatically based on the viewer's screen size.
Next time I will share as link as you said. But I highly recommend such extension. It will be helpful for forum users with small screens as well.

I do not understand how you were able to get back to the command prompt without typing exit. Your problem does not happen on my install of Ubuntu 2004

I am doing it with CTRL+C combination. It works without any problem in other distros and it was working in Ubuntu as well.
And yeah you are right. if I exit like you did, there is no any problem. So the problem is about CTRL+C combination
